Albert L.A. Hogeterp, Ph.D. (2004) in Biblical Studies (New Testament), University of Groningen, is postdoc researcher at the Faculteit Katholieke Theologie, Utrecht. He published a monograph on Paul and God's Temple (Peeters, 2006) and various articles on eschatology in Qumran.
'This monograph aims to integrate the full evidence of the Dead Sea
Scrolls available since the 1990s into the comparative study of
eschatological ideas in Second Temple Judaism and emerging
Christianity. Hogeterp traces Qumran eschatology back to its
scriptural bases and defines its setting in the Palestinian Judaism
of the late Second
Temple Period. Focusing on the issues of resurrection,
apocalypticism, and messianism, Hogeterp explores how both
sectarian and non-sectarian Qumran texts illuminate New Testament
traditions and their Palestinian Jewish roots. He emphasizes that
the variegated Qumran evidence challenges recurrent contrasts
between realized and futurist eschatology, wisdom and apocalyptic,
as well as political-nationalistic and prophetic-ethical
messianism'.
